Antique French Louis XVI Semainier Chest of Drawers with Marble Top, c. 1840–1870

Circa: 1860. A refined French Louis XVI style semainier dating to the mid-19th century, featuring a white marble top surrounded by an elegant pierced brass gallery. This narrow chest offers seven drawers fitted with original brass pulls and ribbon-tied laurel escutcheons, all framed by fluted corner posts and tapered legs. Constructed with hand-cut dovetailed drawers and traditional cabinetmaking techniques, the piece displays the quality and craftsmanship associated with French furniture from the period. The warm walnut-toned finish contrasts beautifully with the marble top and aged brass details, creating a timeless neoclassical appearance. Its narrow footprint makes it exceptionally versatile as a bedroom chest, lingerie chest, hallway storage cabinet, or accent piece in both traditional and modern interiors.
